Lois Lewis @ KiiM-FM 99.5!

I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

November 20th was World Children's Day at McDonald's! Max, Shannon, Porkchop and I were there to help raise some bucks for the Ronald McDonald House right here in Southern Arizona! And thanks to Buzz Jackson for showing up with his trusty video camera... and for embarassing me by asking me to "complete the jingle"!!! I guess I was just too sheltered to know all of these McDonald's commercials; Max, Shannon & Porkchop had NO trouble! My Grammy & Grampy didn't really let me watch any TV when I was little! I did puzzles & homework! Oh well! I know this one: "I'm Lovin' It!!"
This past October, we had some fun riding rides at the Arizona State Fair! I'm not sure how I held the video camera *basically* steady to capture our fun, but if you want to take a spin on the CRAZY COASTER with us, here's your chance!

Recently, I came up with a new fun contest that I DIDN'T steal from Buzz Jackson! Check it out!

On Halloween, I decided to play "Dress-Up" and let YOU guess what I was wearing! My clues were more and more helpful as the night went on... and finally, someone got it right! Check out the pictures in my Halloween Album, but check out the audio here!

If you watched the 2007 Country Music Association Awards Show, the CMAs, you, like me, must've been questioning your CMA Entertainer of the Year's choice for an outfit. Kenny Chesney... what was WITH those pants?
Click here to hear 'Kennys-CMA-Pants'

I saw sheep on my way into work the other day. Yes. Sheep! In a truck. Driving down the I-10 right next to me. On the SAME DAY, Madonna was getting lashings by the RSPCA for turning her sheep into colors other than white for a photo shoot. Yep! Baaaaaaad dye jobs!

Believe it or not, about once each week, I get a call from someone telling me I laugh like, sound like, or look like Rachael Ray. Too bad I can't cook to save my life. I can bake... but I cannot cook. Whattya think? Do I sound like her? I'm going to submit these clips to the Rachael Ray Show and maybe she'll fly me to New York and teach me how to cook! Then, I really can be more like RR, as my LL self! :) Enjoy!

If you listen to Buzz Jackson in the afternoon, you know he likes to play a contest called "Guess What's In the Box & Win". Well, I thought I'd play that same game in HONOR of Buzzy while he was in Hawaii on vacation. If you listen to the whole segment, you'll hear that he didn't appreciate it as much I had hoped he would, as he FINES me for using HIS contest! :)

As you know, Buzz Jackson has two kitty-kats, Mikado and Marble. When Buzz goes on vacation, I visit those little purr-friends to feed them their Purina One Cat Food. Whelp, click below to laugh with me on something that happened during one of those visits!

One of the many traits I inherited from my maternal Grandpap is the way in which I blow my nose. I really honk the honker, if ya know what I'm sayin'. I decided to turn that into a fun contest.

We ALL hate those commercials where the "big voice guy" is talking in some foreign-sounding voice that just can't be real! Well, it really got to me the other day!

Movies:

Buy me some popcorn and sit me down in the Theatre... I'm happy for hours! I LOVE MOVIES!!!! Love PRETTY WOMAN, OLD SCHOOL, ROAD TRIP, and all of those girly romantic comedies. Thought WALK THE LINE was great. Enjoyed LAKE HOUSE. Just saw SEVEN. Scary! The best movies I've seen lately are FRACTURE, LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE, THE DEPARTED, and the latest James Bond flick, CASINO ROYALE. Oh yeah, and GRINDHOUSE rules. UPDATE: You MUST go see NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN. Wow. What a movie!

Television:

Nip/Tuck introduced me to MYSPACE.com. Love that crazy show! QVC is the BEST! I WILL work there someday. Love CSI, Boston Legal, Grey's Anatomy, HOUSE, Saved, Standoff, Close to Home, The Closer, The Sopranos, Dirty Sexy Money, Private Practice, Law & Order (all of 'em), anything on MSNBC, anything on Animal Planet, and of course, any and all No Limit Texas Hold 'Em Tournaments on ESPN or the Travel Channel. I'm ALL IN! My new favorite show is, if you can believe it, THE DOG WHISPERER. You've got to check this guy out; he's amazing!

Books:

Anything by Robin Cook, Patricia Cornwell and Iris Johannsen. Magazines.... US Weekly and Country Weekly are my MUST-HAVES!

Heroes:

My Mom & Pops! Grammy & Grampy! Gwen Foster! Buzz Jackson! Shaun Holly! Willie Nelson! And songwriters, especially the struggling ones.
